shlibs-declares-dependency-on-other-package
All reports of shlibs-declares-dependency-on-other-package for the archive. The extended description of this tag is:
This package declares in its shlibs control file either a dependency on some other package not listed in the Provides of this package or on a version of this package that the package version doesn't satisfy.
Packages should normally only list in their shlibs control file the shared libraries included in that package, and therefore the dependencies listed there should normally be satisfied by either the package itself or one of its Provides.
In unusual circumstances where it's necessary to declare more complex dependencies in the shlibs control file, please add a lintian override for this warning.
Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 8.6 (Dependencies between the library and other packages) for details.
Severity: normal, Certainty: possible
Check: shared-libs, Type: binary, udeb
This tag has not been emitted in any package tested by Lintian.
